Subject: perf stat: Add --pre and --post command
X-Git-Tag: v3.8-rc1~60^2~28^2
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1f16c5754d3a4008c29f3bf67b4f1271313ba385;p=profile%2Fivi%2Fkernel-adaptation-intel-automotive.git

perf stat: Add --pre and --post command

In order to measure kernel builds, one has to do some pre/post cleanup
work in order to do the repeat build.

So provide --pre and --post command hooks to allow doing just that.

  perf stat --repeat 10 --null --sync --pre 'make -s O=defconfig-build/clean' \
	-- make -s -j64 O=defconfig-build/ bzImage
